But your Biblical knowledge is not! That a man lay with a man is an abomination to God. He made man and he made woman for man. And he said go forth and multiply. God’s law cannot be legislated away, but it can be legislated into man’s law.
I never said that God’s cannot be legislated away but you cannot legislate morality. Morality is born of the heart and the spirit. If you want to change the laws of the land to moral ones you must first change the hearts of men. You just cannot simply make a law and expect immoral people to follow it. You must change them and then the laws will follow. The change must first take place in the home and in the churches, not the national legislature. You change in the home and the church and then Godly men will be elected and things will change.
You cannot force your morality on someone just because you’re a a majority. For the day will come when you’re not a majority and then you’ve set the standard to have someone else’s morality forced on you.
I'm a protestant who knows history. We don't need no stink'n theocracy. Trust me on that one.
The laws protecting marriage don't need to be Federal just like the laws protecting abortion should never have been Federal.
But your Biblical knowledge is not! But your Biblical knowledge is not!
Apparently neither is yours. GOD also gave man free will to love HIM or reject him and the ability to live according to The Spirit of the Law or the letter of the Law. Living according to the letter of the Law will result in one glorifying GOD in HIS rath or realizing one’s inadequacy and crying out for help. Living according to the Spirit of the Law will lead to GOD’s grace being glorified.
No constitutional amendment will stop homosexuality, promiscuity, infidelity, drug use, alcohol abuse, or any other sin. All this accomplishes is restricting freedom, empowering government and a lack of community involvment.
